“Aren’t you going to ask who I offended?”
Zachary looked at her and said, “There’s no need to. No matter who you offend, I’ll always be on your side.”
In his eyes, his wife was always right.
Serenity muttered, “Zachary, you’ll spoil me rotten if you trust me like this.”
“That’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I’ll spoil you so rotten that no one else can stand you. That way, you’ll always be mine. No one will try to steal you away.”
Serenity could not help but laugh. “Who would dare steal me away after knowing that I’m your wife?”
Shawn had been secretly in love with her for many years and did not give up even after finding out that she was married. He hoped that she could still marry him after she divorced her husband. However, when his mother told him that Serenity’s husband was Zachary York, the heir of the York family, Shawn finally gave up.
Last time, Shawn took advantage of a long weekend to hastily return to Wiltspoon. Rachel invited Jasmine and her family for dinner, and they got together with Shawn as well.
Jasmine said that Shawn had matured a lot, but he had become much quieter. He did not talk much after greeting everyone.
She said that he must still love Serenity, but he knew that he could not compete with Zachary. He did not dare compete with Zachary either since Zachary had made a move against Lowe Lowe Enterprise when he tried to pester Serenity. No matter how love-addled Shawn’s brain was, he did not dare gamble with his family business.
He could not afford to gamble, and he could not afford to lose.
He could only force himself to cut off his feelings.
Before he left Wiltspoon to go back to work in Havenmill, he told Jasmine that he would probably not fall in love and get married for the next ten years.
Jasmine’s heart ached for her cousin, but she could only comfort him. With her character, she could not help her cousin to pursue Serenity and destroy Serenity’s marital happiness.
